Bolivars are great cigars, by the way. If you want a pyramid, hard to beat a BBF.

Worry about aging after you've smoked a few hundred.

What Bob said.

Also, come to the Habanos section and ask questions before your first purchase. Plenty of helpful brothers there that will help steer you in the right direction.

Give Sancho Panza Belicosos a try if you like a good pyramid. I have an 01 box that I'm smoking from and they are hands down a suburb smoke right now. Sadly the BBF's from 00 could still use a few years of age.

Is this from a flavor standpoint or do they need to "loosen" up a bit due to construction?
I agree on the Sanchos. Great Belis IMO.

Flavor standpoint. Has great flavor and really holds up to long term aging, but they are still a bit harsh and aggressive to me.
